ooh boy do i have a developing story on this so a bit after i did this i started finding piles of 2 bones in the shape of an x later on the radar started picking up many entities and then i saw it for the first time though i only saw the red light it made at first eventually there was some red light poking through one of the bases walls and welp there was a familiar looking skull clipping through the wall looking at me and beforehand this thing disappeared the moment you looked at it though this time it didn't (probably because whatever point the game was checking to see if you looked at it was covered by the wall) long story short i have a decent amount of footage relating to this dude

And its only in v0.6, can't wait for the full game to come out and hope it gets a steam release because I will 100% buy it.

Haven't played it at all and only have watched Joel play it as well as seeing channels like this looking into specifics and whatnot but it still surprises me it's free to play, I always keep thinking it's a game you have to pay for ahahahah

[@magnificentbeard5506]

One of my friends told me about the skull and what to do with it. I thought it sounded terrible, but they were like, "Nah, man it's chill." Their interpretation of the creature just hanging around and dropping bones around the base was some way of thanking you for releasing it. I'm inclined to agree, because I summoned it after I learned you can sell anything you put in the item box. All those bones are five points a piece. The bone harvest paid for quite a few upgrades! Not like it's trying to hurt you because it easily could. I had it appear inside the base a few times... in the walls and floor, but still.

[@SomewhatDapperExtraterrestrial]

Watching your videos, the only thing I can think is "I can't wait until Joel encounters this and shits himself". Edit: He microwaved the skull and nothing happened, he unknowingly prevented the haunting by reloading the game

I'm not gonna lie, I have been spooked by it more times than I can count already. It's viewable ingame yeah! Maybe I can show it off in the next video, using a camera the player can point it at themselves and look at the video feed.

[@titanic_monarch796]

I actually preferred the lack of a proper model shadow since the new model can break the immersion with the animations. Makes for some good spooks though.

SPOILER There is a second wendigo skull buried underground just a tiny bit southwest of the base (headed toward quebec, but not yet past juliette) I wonder if there are more? I also wonder if burning multiple at once leads to them becoming angier...?

[@lindezzzzz949]

I had a pretty fun first encounter when I microwaved this skull. The Wendigo actually appeared inside the base in the side room of the new garage layout. I was able to look directly at them and even approach them from within the hallway. I had some of the alien cutouts propped in front of the desk window and was able to get a nice picture, but I never got to print it or even see it because I died to a seperate event involving a a very deep hole after not being able to save for almost 20 minutes. Now, after doing the event again, I've found a larger animal skull while digging (possibly a horse skull?) and I'm excited to see if that does anything spooky...

Simply getting the skull also gets the event rolling, but it's much more tame. Ever since I got the skull without microwaving it, I've seen the totems (very rarely) randomly appear and I've been getting some messages during sleep, unfortunately I never get to see what they say, because they appear for like, a split second and always at a time I'm not expecting them. No visual appearances of the Wendigo though.
